Katherine Kovacic The Portrait of Molly Dean

In 1999 art dealer Alex Clayton stumbles across a lost portrait of Molly Dean, an artist’s muse brutally slain in Melbourne in 1930. Alex buys the painting and seeks to uncover what really happened, but finds strange inconsistencies in the case. Why was the main suspect never brought to trial? And why are vital records missing?

‘A swirl of history, art, intrigue and murder that brings 1930s Melbourne to life’ — Gideon Haigh

Mareike Krugel Look at Me

The fourth novel from this prize-winning German writer. Katharina’s husband isn’t coming home for the weekend – again – so she’s on her own. When she’s got her children and the household organised – and decided whether or not to seduce her old friend from college –  perhaps she’ll have time to think about the lump she’s found in her breast. Because you can’t just die and leave a huge mess for someone else to clean up, can you?

‘Australia’s whales are lucky to have had observers, admirers and protectors like Micheline Jenner. But so are the citizens of this island nation, for the Jenners have not only advanced our scientific knowledge, they’ve enriched our culture.’ — Tim Winton
